Overview

Excerpt from Slams of Life: With Malice for All, and Charity Toward None; Assembled in Rhyme Most of these verses, I understand, have appeared in numerous magazines and newspapers who are to be con gratulated upon their good taste, but who may not be mentioned here because of the obnoxious publicity which would accrue to them thereby. The author tells me that he has had great difficulty in keeping these magazines and newspapers pacified. They hound him day and night for his imperishable work and he spends a miserable existence tossing little hunks to first one and then the other, as they feed fish to the seals in the circus. There are some verses included which have never before seen the light of day. The author says they are good. We shall see. Acknowledgements are made to Noah Webster for the use of some of his words. My favorite author upon completing the collection of these verses asked me to write this foreword. As he modestly put it: I know of no one who could possibly do it half so well.
